Still Wanna Escape After Stealing My Heart? novel Chapter 874

Jane was seeing stars from all the beating she took before that, but immediately reacted by hanging onto Alex's leg. "Hel-help me, please help me. Take me away, I'll do anything, take me away, please?"

Alex was dressed in a navy green uniform with a cloak thrown over it at the time. His majestic and righteous image instantly reassured her. Ben dared not utter a word and froze at the spot five meters away from them. Ben sat on the ground and crawled backward in fear that Alex might kick him to death the next instant. By then, Alex had squatted down. His splendid navy green cloak piled onto the ground, but h e paid no mind to it getting dirty. He simply stared steadily at Jane, who was curling up on the floor with blood still streaming from the corner of her mouth. Still, she clung onto him with both of her arms.

"Help me...I can be your maid, I can do the hardest chores, all I ask is to be fed. Help me, please don’t let m e die, please?" She gazed desperately at Alex, but he remained silent.

Those days were some of the darkest days in Alex's life. His girlfriend of five years had left him out of the blue and ran off to an unknown country in South Africa. Right before she left, Lily had told Alex calmly," Alex, I'm leaving. I don't have the right to ask that you wait for me for the years to come, but I simply don't feel like marrying you right now. I'm only twenty-

three years old, I want to take a step back from you and explore other options." 3

He had no idea, but deep down, he was wounded severely.

Just as he was suffering at one of his lowest moments in life after losing Lily, Alex met Jane. At the time, she wasn't named Jane. She was just generally referred to as 'stupid Jane' at home and 'the third Sheen girl' in public. She grabbed onto Alex's leg for a while before the depressed man finally scooped her up and carried her in his arms. He directly took her to a military hospital where they ran a full body check on her. The result was hard to hear even for Alex.
